Cold Transmission Music presents a compilation featuring 23 songs released in 2025 by the label, including artist like Grey Gallows, Kalte Nacht, Kay-Chi, Nightcrawler, Oliver Decrow, Rina Pavar, S Y Z Y G Y X, SIIE or Years Of Denial.
With the album ‘Dunkelheit’, Grey Gallows have experimented exclusively with the electronic sound using analogue and digital synthesizers and tried to expand their musical boarders into different genres and styles, keeping their artistic signature in every composition from the early 80’s EBM to the modern electronic sound.
Shadows Hold is a Dark Wave/Post Punk solo project based out of Los Angeles, USA. Emerging from the underground music scene, Shadows Hold creates a blend of Darkwave, Post-Punk, and EBM throughout his tracks characterized by ethereal vocals, atmospheric sounds, and strong leads. After several independent releases, Shadows Hold returns with ‘Nexum‘, a 3-track EP that expands on the project’s distinct sound. The music uses reverb and mood to give shape to feelings that are hard to put into words.
Cold Transmission Music presents a collection of electrifying Nightcrawler remixes that take you on a sonic journey through the bold and experimental world of electronic music. Known for his unique and genre-defying approach, Nightcrawler reimagines tracks from the amazing roster of bands signed to the Cold Transmission Music label, infusing them with his signature style.
Leipzig-based icy dark electronic artist Rina Pavar unveils ‘six’ her second album. In ‘six’ “I delve even deeper into my very personal perception of my musical self. Songs about memories, visions and encounters flow into new sounds and beats … which I hope will touch and move the listener.”
“Cité Lunaire” seamlessly blends EBM and synthpop to create a sonic journey between dream and reality. The lyrics, both poetic and introspective, explore the desire to escape the “chains of existence” and lose oneself in a parallel reality. The dense electronic production, with cold synths and powerful beats, enhances the feeling of drifting and intensity. Accompanied by an electro remix by Panthera, this version adds a dynamic touch with punchy beats. “Cité Lunaire” invites both introspection and escape, through a modern and mesmerizing soundscape.
From the debut album of cold wave/new wave acts of Konstant, La Nuit Je Mens and Oliver Decrow, to the electro art of veterans Anthony Rother, Dark Vektor, E.R.P. and Legowelt; from the roughness of Filmmaker, Gesloten Cirkel and Howard Thomas to the melodic synthscapes of Steve Moore; from the jacking house of Paranoid London and Timothy J. Fairplay to arpeggiated madness of Rodion & Fabrizio Mammarella, here are our favorite 20 albums from 2024, compiled in chronological order.

JG Outsider is returning to Oráculo Records to once again deliver his unique blend of twisted modern EBM, advanced industrial, and power electronics. This time, he’s joined by Nightcrawler and Spammerheads with two dancefloor-filling remixes. Tracks are taken from JG Outsider’s album “Despierto” released last year by Cold Transmission Music.
We start presenting our favorite tracks from 2024. More or less in a chronological order we present here the fourth set of tracks.

“Grand Virage” is the first single from SIIE’s upcoming debut album Acmé, set for release in April 2025 on Cold Transmission Music. This darkwave electro track invites listeners on a haunting, introspective journey, featuring driving synths, mesmerizing melodies, and evocative French vocals. It captures the experience of navigating life’s uncertainties and pivotal choices. Enhanced by a remix from Emmon, which adds a minimalistic, atmospheric touch, the track becomes an ideal soundtrack for those unafraid to explore both the light and dark sides of their path.
After a long period of inactivity, during which he recharged his batteries for his return to music production, JG Outsider took up the challenge of recording his first solo album in this new phase of his musical career. EBM, industrial sounds, post-punk songs with his own vocals and high-level collaborations make up this work. It is undoubtedly a musically mature album that shows the identity of this chameleon-like artist with a career spanning more than 30 years. The album also includes great remixes by Nightcrawler Music and Spammerheads as well as a collaboration with Ruth García/From Hell.
This long awaited debut album offers a cross-section of songs, previously performed live multiple times, where Oliver Decrow provides insights into his life and emotions, attempting to process experiences. Themes such as the suicide of a friend, self-doubt, grief, courage, love, fear, hope, the subconscious, letting go, escaping, and numerous emotional highs and lows are explored in his album.
Cold Transmission presents the second chapter of their Zeitgeist Chrome series, dedicated to the finest electronic music. Includes songs by Grey Gallows, Kalte Nacht, Oliver Decrow, Rina Pavar, Teatre & Years Of Denial.
